Holding most of the Eldorado Mountains bordering the Colorado River and Lake Mohave, Unit 266 offers hunting for desert bighorn sheep and a few mule deer. Hunters can use roads to access sheep hunting areas, or they enjoy the unusual opportunity of using a boat on Lake Mohave.
Hunters report seeing a few different rams, making for enjoyable hunting. Most rams are in the Boy Scout Canyon and Burro Wash areas. Spot-and-stalk hunting is physically demanding. Resident deer numbers are low.
